Hi,

I have setup about 10 different adresses in my DNSMasq (AC68U).
Here's the list:
address=/bt.lan/cloud.lan/ftp.lan/home.lan/mov.lan/tv.lan/jackett.lan/media.lan/omv.lan/vpn.lan/vpn-admin.lan/plex.lan/web.lan/web2.lan/web3.lan/192.168.1.2

Everything works very well, except for one of the domain-names, "tv.lan".
If I try to reach this adress I get err_connection_timed_out.
And if I change my reverse proxy to "mov.lan" I reach this without any problems at all. Every other domain work with this service, but not tv.lan.

Is there any reason?
I would like to be able to use it.
 
If you do this through /jffs/configs/dnsmasq.conf.add you could simply add this for all *.lan domains to resolve to 192.168.1.2:
Code:
address=/lan/192.168.1.2
 
Also, before you change anything, did you check where the domain tv.lan resolves to?
Code:
ping tv.lan
and/or
tracert tv.lan
for Windows, for *NIX use: 
traceroute tv.lan

Just tried it, this is the result:
Code:
C:\Users\User>ping tv.lan

To compare with bt.lan which works perfectly as all the others:
Code:
C:\Users\User>ping bt.lan

Btw, this was done while I was on VPN, but same issue when I am at home.
Looks like tv.lan points to 192.168.1.4, I have no idea why?

Thank you for your help!
